It might be a crucial window for Birmingham City this summer.
This season has clearly not gone as planned, and with the club in relegation danger, Tom Wagner must be prepared to address some of the difficulties facing the Blues during the next window, regardless of the division they finish up in next season.
It is evident that certain players must leave, while others must be bought to replace those who will either leave at the conclusion of their contracts or leave when their loan arrangements at St Andrew’s expire.
Many variables worked in Birmingham’s favor last summer, as they were able to get some decent permanent acquisitions, but the money may be tighter this summer, particularly if Jordan James remains in the Midlands beyond the conclusion of the window.
They could still enjoy a very successful transfer period in the summer though – and we take a look at a potential dream transfer window for Blues.
